In addition to the asset transfer, the hospital is waiting for their 501c3 application from the IRS, and trying to pick an affiliate.

Wolleben earlier this year at a town board meeting said he hoped at the MMH meeting the following week, but it didn’t happen. That was in February. The only updates he has given in public is they are looking at two potential affiliates, one in eastern New York and one in the western part of the state.

Gray implied that MMH officials may have whittled that number down to one.

“They’ve been talking with one entity, but that hasn’t really progressed other than the very early stages of contact,” he said Wednesday. “A lot of stuff I can’t go into detail because we couldn’t, public session, and I’m not going to do that.”

The MMH board meets Monday at 4 p.m. in the hospital’s second floor boardroom.
